A sample game of IAGO Chess run with Zillions playing both sides.  This game didn't use the drop feature of IAGO Chess.  Feel free to review any who have Capablanca chess sets.  I will look to get a version up in Zillions once I am comfortable with it (I need to tweak the promotion rules for the pawns).  It is close, but I wanted to get this up now for people to see how a sample game goes.  And yes, Zillions does it usual Knight happy opening.  However, this doesn't always happen.  I will be posting in another post my experience watching Zillions play a bunch of times.
